What We Know So Far About “Brothers”
The film “Brothers” revolves around twin brothers who lead a criminal life and set off on a road trip. Moke, played by Brolin, is trying to leave his past behind and tread a lawful path. His brother, Jady (Dinklage), lures him back with the promise of one last lucrative job that could secure their financial future. Accompanied by their mother, Cath (played by Close), the trio attempts to mend their fractured relationships.
Brendan Fraser is also part of the cast, taking on the role of a character named Farful. Although specific details about his character remain under wraps, the image suggests he may be a law enforcement officer pursuing the brothers as they undertake one last risky endeavor before leaving their criminal lives behind.
The Creative Force Behind “Brothers”
Director Max Barbakow is known for his 2020 debut feature film, “Palm Springs,” starring Andy Samberg and Cristin Miloti. The film garnered critical acclaim and numerous accolades for its innovative storytelling.
“Brothers” seems to draw inspiration from Ivan Reitman’s “Twins,” where two vastly different brothers embark on a transformative journey. Despite some similarities, the story promises a fresh take that should appeal to audiences eager to see Brolin and Dinklage in comedic roles. Additionally, it marks a return for Brendan Fraser to the lighthearted characters he portrayed in the 1990s and early 2000s. “Brothers” is set to premiere in select theaters on October 10, followed by its release on Prime Video on October 17.
